TLM Essential Digital Skills Qualifications (EDSQ) are available at both Entry Level and Level 1.
These qualifications are mapped to the National Occupational Standards for Essential Digital Skills and are fully funded under legal entitlement for adults (19+) who wish to develop their digital skills. They will also be funded for adults (16-18) who don’t have the basic digital skills they need for life and work through a study programme.
Skill Areas
All five skill areas will be comprehensively covered in both qualifications. These five areas are:
- Using devices and handling information
- Creating and editing
- Communicating
- Transacting
- Being safe and responsible online
